A rapid, adaptative DNA biosensor based on molecular beacon-concatenated dual signal amplification strategies for ultrasensitive detection of p53 gene and cancer cells

The cancer diagnosis with single level of biomarkers suffers from limitation of insufficient accuracy. Hence, developing sensitive, rapid and adaptative analytical strategies for double-level biomarkers are essential for improving the accuracy of clinical cancer diagnosis at early stage. Herein, a DNA biosensor was established based on the catalytic hairpin assembly-mediated Y-junction nicking enzyme assisted signal amplification (CHA-YNEASA)...
